TheNiño Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 2 minutes ago, TheClimateChanger said: Not sure. Almost looks like a fog bank getting sucked up in updrafts. Is that possible? Very possible actually. There was definitely a lower layer you could definitely be correct. Looked cool anyway. Only lasted for about 5min. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nvck Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 76/65 here, with steady winds from the south. I'm just out of the tornado watch but definitely a fairly primed atmosphere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwohweather Posted April 17 Author Share Posted April 17 Might just need a little more humidity for this to really get going. The atmosphere is solid at the moment, I'm shocked nothing is really taking off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IWXwx Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 IWX received damage reports near Pennville, IN. Subject called and reported that he watched neighbor's shed get blown off and claimed it was a tornado. They received other damage reports nearby. The Jay County EMA director is enroute to do an assessment. Here is the radar grab from that time-frame. I guess there could have been a quick spinup.

nwohweather Posted April 17 Author Share Posted April 17 Not much of an event here in the Toledo area. Looks like the LCL put a bit of a lid on things, instability and shear weren't enough to drop anything truly severe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheeselandSkies Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Our @hlcater got some of the better footage I've seen of the tornado of the day (at least duration/impact-wise) which tracked from Houghton-Mediapolis, IA. Me, I was on the storm minutes beforehand but didn't think it looked about to produce and jumped on the southern storm, which was also tornado-warned at the time, and chased it across the river to near Little York, IL but it never did much of interest. Wall cloud looking west on 140th St., south of Houghton or near Mt. Hamill: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwohweather Posted April 18 Author Share Posted April 18 Not a bad storm reports day at all, definitely warranted the slight risk. Shocked to see some of the damage reports on US-127, it did not seem like the line was that strong at the time it went through there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
